Keep Christmas with You DVD with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Sesame Street

Today, I just got the DVD of the concert the Sesame gang did with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and I recommend everyone get a copy. Not only is the concert awesome, but there's a behind the scenes feature with all the Muppet performers.

@sesamemuppetfan, you'll appreciate this: Even though they made People in Your Neighborhood into a rap, they used the original version in the concert. So that means, that they haven't made the rap version permanent.

That's called an arrangement. Different performances have different arrangements. The rap one was in no way permanent; that's just the way they covered it for a certain segment.

Then the DVD's gonna get your money's worth, cause it's an hour and 33 minutes. Plus you won't get these behind-the-scenes stuff:

There's 2. There's a 7 minute one with Santino, and a 23 minute one with the Sesame Street crew, including all the puppeteers, the vocal music director Paul Rudolph, the executive producer Carol-Lynn Parente, and the puppet wranglers, Lars MacLean and Jason Weber. They talk about their experience at the concert, and they show footage of them getting ready and rehearsing.
